Jeith is the slash ship between James and Keith from the Voltron: Legendary Defender fandom.
Canon
Season 7
In “A Little Adventure,” during a flashback Keith and James are classmates in their formal operational years. Takashi Shirogane comes to their school looking for “the next generation of astroexplores.” James is excited, while Keith only looks out a window. Soon Shiro has them and the rest of their class outside at a flight simulator. James and others complete the simulator, no one making it past level 3. With only Keith left, he excels and completes level 5. James looks over Keith’s shoulder, saying, “No way! Keith made it past level 5! Thing’s gotta be broken…” Shiro is impressed, asking if Keith is on the list of students that his teacher made. He is not; instead she introduces James as he has the highest grades. Moments later Keith steals Shiro’s car, with James looking on in absolute shock.
Sometime later, Keith and James are now cadets at the Galaxy Garrison.
Fanon
Jeith was seen as a crack paring in the beginning, when it was revealed James was the guy Keith punched in the flashback. It wasn’t until the release of season 7 that the ship has started taking off, Keith and James have yet to have any real connection, but with their own personal character growth, people think there’s a chance of a true developing relationship as friends and allies. Many fans are hoping for them to talk about their past. Fans are also saying with James having a full name and him and Keith having some history and a slight acknowledgment of each other that the ship is no longer considered a crack ship.
Shiro is frequent in Jeith works, usually with Shiro and Keith being in an established relationship with James pinning for Keith. Jeith has also been compared to Klance.
